Newbie Question regarding uTorrent

All right, so I've just downloaded (well, I'm still downloading them. Quite a big file) some PDF documents onto my computer using uTorrent. What am I supposed to now to get all those documents into a readable form?
Sorry about posting such an amateur question. I couldn't find any threads in the forum giving me the information, and the websites I googled up are nothing put confusion. I'm still very much the computer illiterate. Sorry for clogging up the forum.

They already are, just open your download directory (either through Explorer or the µTorrent UI). Unless of course they're corrupted.
You're sure you didn't just download the torrent files without starting them, do you?

If they're still downloading, you probably won't actually be able to access them until they're completely downloaded. You can check in the main uTorrent window by clicking on the torrent name and then the "Files" tab in the lower half. That will show you a list of files. Any file that is at 100% is of course done, and you should be able to open it in the folder you downloaded to.

Ah, thank you. I'll go give it a try now.

You can set it to prioritize the beginning of the file, which may allow you to open them before they're done, but could also easily corrupt them, since they are PDFs. I would say just leave them until they're done.
